[[Template:Lcs]] is a smaller variant of [[Template:Lc|Lc]] with pleasant output also on browsers which don't support <code>[[Interpunct|&amp;middot;]]</code>.
 
[[Template:Lcs]] allows one parameter, the name of an existing [[Wikipedia:Category|category]]. It can be used on talk and user pages related to an existing [[WP:TPG|talk page]] of the category, but the linked category talk page might also not yet exist.

== Usage ==

{{tl|Lcs}} needs one parameter, the name of an existing [[Wikipedia:Category|category]].

<code><nowiki>{{lcs|category}}</nowiki></code> shows links for the specified category;<br/>
<code><nowiki>{{lcs}}</nowiki></code> shows links for a category wrt the <code><nowiki>{{PAGENAME}}</nowiki></code>

===Example===
{{Aligned table |class=wikitable
 | '''Code''' | '''Result'''
 | <code><nowiki>{{lcs|Category:Internal link templates}}</nowiki></code> | {{lcs|Category:Internal link templates}}
 | <code><nowiki>{{lcs|internal link templates}}</nowiki></code> | {{lcs|internal link templates}}
 | <code><nowiki>{{lcs}}</nowiki></code> | {{lcs}}
}}
''The latter shows bogus links, as long as no category'' {{PAGENAME}} ''exists.''

: <code><nowiki>{{lcs|Interwiki utility templates}}</nowiki></code>
produces:
: {{lcs{{#ifeq:{{SUBPAGENAME}}|sandbox |/sandbox}}|Interwiki utility templates}}
